STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. (AP) — Police say two teenage boys have been hospitalized with serious injuries after they fell several hundred feet from a cliff at Stone Mountain Park.

Park spokesman John Bankhead tells the Atlanta Journal-Constitution (http://bit.ly/13awVB0) the boys were in a restricted area on the back side of the park when they fell.

Bankhead says the most seriously injured teen was airlifted to the Atlanta Medical Center and the second teen was taken to the Gwinnett Medical Center. The extent of their injuries wasn't immediately clear. Bankhead says a 12-year-old who was with them was not injured.

Bankhead says there are signs telling visitors to stay out of the restricted area and the children were at the park with one of their fathers.
